Hi Lonnie.
  Yes, crontab -l shows what I expect...

pbx ~ # crontab -l
##
## logrotate - Do not remove, comment-out to disable
00 04 * * * /usr/sbin/logrotate /etc/logrotate.conf >/dev/null 2>&1

##
## Fossil daily auto-commit - Do not remove, un-comment to enable
55 23 * * * /usr/bin/fossil-commit >/dev/null 2>&1
<cut off the rest>

and yes /ver/spool/cron/crontabs is symlinked over to /mnt/kd.  And the
crond process is running...

Jul 26 09:55:17 pbx cron.info crond[1135]: crond (busybox 1.30.1)
started, log level 8

But nothing is executing overnight !

Thanks
David
